Winter Roses KAL

For a laid-back sweatshirt feel with a fun tri-color motif, this ultra-cozy sweater is knit in the round—from the top-down—so you can try it on as you go! The circular yoke and body are embellished with bands of bold colorwork and textural garter stitch ridges. Knit in HiKoo® Simplinatural—a smooth, fluffy, Aran-weight yarn, featuring a sumptuous blend of baby alpaca, fine merino wool, and mulberry silk.

This pattern also features instructions for two neck variations, as well as a full-length or cropped-length body. Charted and written instructions are available for the colorwork.
